This festival took place over the last weekend. The organiser contacted me a while ago asking if I'd be there to record it (he's seen a few of my videos on YouTube).

This is a "quick" video, and was helped with recording by two lads (one being the organiser's cousin, and the other was his cousin's mate). Most of the camera work was shot by them two on a Canon 60D and a Nikon (7500 I think). I was on the GoPro and Drone. Eventually I'll be doing a promotional video for the organiser with a lot more time taken in editing.

I like the camera shots and editing, but I'm not sure the Casey music goes with the country fair ambience, although I realise it's an integral part of the editing style.

Having said that I can't think of an alternative to suggest.

^^^ That is the key bit. I spent 2 days before the festival looking for music - but as this is for my own channel, I did it my way.

The organiser originally wanted to use this track:

However, he's changed his mind. Fortunately, he runs a company that deals with Artist Liason and Tour Management (from his website, artists include; Bruno Mars, Kings Of Leon, Jake Bugg, Jack White, The Jackson, JLS, Bastille, Disclosure, Chemical Brothers, London Grammar, The Cure, Sam Smith, Duran Duran, Wiz Khalifa, Swim Deep, John Cooper Clarke, Neville Staple, The Twang, Years and Years, Dizzee Rascal, Lethal Bizzle, Skepta, Sean Paul, Damian Marley , Paddy Considine…. As well as others). His partner runs a similar business, but deals with smaller, unknown artists (one features in the video). So hopefully, we'll get a track from one of them to use that will be more fitting for a proper promotional video.
